Statewide rents-to-income ratio map

Project Description: A statewide map comparing the median home price in every jurisdiction to metropolitan household income. Generally, three to five is considered to be a healthy rate—this interactive map will reveal potentially exclusionary jurisdictions.

Note: the title says rents to income, but the description specifies home price, so I did both. Rents are compared to monthly income.

Home Values to Income

  layer.name = "Ratio of Home Values to Income")

Rents as a percentage of monthly income

Code

  layer.name = "Gross Rent % of Monthly Income")
